Stereo Fuzz. Yes Please!
The Death By Audio Crossover Fuzz is not a traditional fuzz pedal — it’s a dual-band sound-design machine built for players who want total control over how their distortion behaves across the frequency spectrum. By splitting your signal into high and low frequency bands, each with its own gain and volume controls, this pedal allows you to create layered, aggressive, and wildly dynamic fuzz tones that simply aren’t possible with standard fuzz circuits.
Designed and hand-built with Death By Audio’s signature no-compromise approach, the Crossover Fuzz excels at everything from thick, controlled distortion to unstable, oscillating chaos. Whether you’re crafting massive walls of sound, dialing in surgical fuzz textures, or experimenting with stereo rigs, this pedal opens the door to entirely new sonic territory.
Dual-Band Fuzz Design
At the heart of the Crossover Fuzz is its frequency-splitting architecture. Your signal is divided into low-pass and high-pass bands, each processed independently through its own fuzz circuit.
• Low Band: Thick, heavy, low-frequency fuzz
• High Band: Aggressive, cutting, high-frequency distortion
Each band features independent Gain and Volume controls, letting you balance, blend, or completely overpower one band with the other. This design makes it easy to maintain low-end clarity while pushing the highs into full destruction — or vice versa.
Filter & Resonance Control
The Frequency (FREQ) control determines where the signal splits between high and low frequencies, while the Resonance (RES) control shapes the intensity of the crossover point.
• Smooth, musical filtering at lower settings
• Sharp, aggressive peaks as resonance increases
• Extreme settings introduce self-oscillation and synth-like textures
This section is where the Crossover Fuzz moves beyond traditional fuzz pedals and into experimental filter territory.
Routing & Stereo Flexibility
The Crossover Fuzz offers multiple routing options, making it ideal for complex rigs:
• Mono: Combine both bands into a single output
• Mono-to-Stereo: Split highs and lows into separate outputs
• Stereo: Independent left and right signal paths
This flexibility makes it perfect for bi-amp setups, stereo pedalboards, recording environments, and creative live rigs.
Expression & CV Control
An onboard expression pedal / CV input allows real-time control over the crossover frequency. This makes it easy to sweep between frequency ranges while playing, adding movement and dynamics to your fuzz tones without touching the pedal.
Great for:
• Live performance manipulation
• Ambient and experimental textures
• Rhythmic filter sweeps
Visual Feedback & Build Quality
The pedal features multi-color LED feedback that changes based on filter behavior, providing instant visual reference on stage or in the studio.
Built into a rugged metal enclosure, the Crossover Fuzz is designed to withstand heavy touring, aggressive playing styles, and demanding pedalboard setups.
